Haninge Week 7 - October 29, 2018

This is going to be a little short, sorry! It was an awesome week, though!

I dropped off Elder Hansen at the train station on Wednesday. It always feels strange to be alone, I waited there for about an hour for Elder Burns. Luckily, our ward mission leader happened to be there for part of the time and I was on splits with him!

Elder Burns is here! We have had a fun few days together and have put in some hard work. Elder Burns is coming from Skellefteå, the smallest branch in Sweden. Last Sunday, he was one of 7 people in attendance at the Sacrament Meeting. At church yesterday, we attended both the Vendelsö and Handen wards, 2 of the biggest units in Sweden. What a change! Elder Burns and I feel blessed to be here in Haninge among so many faithful Church members.

We woke up to snow! The first I have seen so far this winter. It is interesting that I have lived in Stockholm for about 9 months now, I have seen the snow melt completely away and now it's on it's way back! 

After the member meal on Saturday, Elder Burns and I had a few minutes before it was time to head home and we decided to knock some doors in the area. One man let us in and gave us each a carrot! He has talked to missionaries before and read in the Book of Mormon. We have had some fun experiences tracting lately, we'll see what this next week brings!
